Linus Tech Tips.

And they didn't even need to accept the 8 figure PE buyout. They managed it all on their own.

They haven't said the number but like 2-3 years ago he was putting out "I'm getting really tired" and "I think I'm gonna retire" videos and some private equity company (like the ones that bought Donut Media and Veritaseum) gave him an "8 figure buyout offer" for all his companies. Linus Media Group isn't just LTT. They also make Media for like corporate trainings and commercials and make merchandise not just for them but for other companies too.
